iPhone 6S getting iOS 14 is like the Galaxy S6 getting Android 11. Imagine that.

[Dev] I finally managed to finish and release a game!

(I got approval from the mods to post this).

Hi everyone!

This game took longer than I hoped because I have a full time job but I finally managed to complete my goal.

My game is called Road Runner and it's about trying to dodge cars and trying to get as far as you can without getting hit, obviously don't try this in real life, it's just a game.

The game is very simple but quite addictive, its a tap game and with each tap you cross the road to the next lane. You can't stay in one lane for too...

DISCUSSION - We need a way to keep apps installed but inactive

Just like disabling system apps. The advantage is that at any point they will be locally available but won't be eating battery, pushing notifications, getting triggered upon events etc. until called upon....

Apple recently unveiled new privacy features in iOS, such as opt in access to device identifiers and alerts when the clipboard is being accessed. Android should apply these same features and ensure all apps provide transparency into how user data is used

Apple recently posted an [article](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/user-privacy-and-data-use/) explaining new user privacy and data controls.

Here's what they say, in brief:

> With iOS 14, iPadOS 14, and tvOS 14, you will need to receive the user’s permission through the AppTrackingTransparency framework to track them or access their device’s advertising identifier.

I am amazed this isn't a joint effort between Apple and Google (lol, I know), to try and enforce an industry standard to a...

Forgot how awesome Google Voice is

While finally transferring my parents' landline number to Google Voice, I finally realized how damn useful it actually is. First off, this had the ability to answer and make calls/texts from any device years before we had Messages for Web. On top of that, the fact that it can port your own numbers over is a godsend. I can see the huge appeal for why so many would want to use it as their primary texting and calling number....

[DEV] Hustle - A simple counter app

A very simple app created to track habits or chores or any particular task.
Provides simple counters and an easy to use interface.
Deleting a counter is as simple as swiping it away.

A dark theme also exists, for ease of use at night.

This was created by me as I required something similar and the alternatives were either cumbersome to use or just haven't been updated in a while.

Hope you all check it out.

I really miss Google Play Edition phones, I wonder why they are no more made! (I can imagine the greatness of a Galaxy Note 10 with Note-friendly features and Stock Android!...if GPEs were a thing even today!)
